1-63: Consider organizing environment variables alphabetically within each section.

The dotenv-linter warnings about unordered keys (NETWORK_MAX_HOPS before NETWORK_TIMEOUT_SECONDS, etc.) are style-related but worth addressing for consistency. While not a functional issue, alphabetical ordering within sections would improve maintainability and searchability.

Apply this diff to organize variables alphabetically within sections:

# Network Diagnostics
-NETWORK_TIMEOUT_SECONDS=10
-NETWORK_MAX_HOPS=30
+NETWORK_MAX_HOPS=30
+NETWORK_TIMEOUT_SECONDS=10

# Backup Manager
-BACKUP_COMPRESSION=gzip
-BACKUP_RETENTION_DAYS=7
-BACKUP_RETENTION_WEEKS=4
-BACKUP_RETENTION_MONTHS=6
+BACKUP_COMPRESSION=gzip
+BACKUP_RETENTION_DAYS=7
+BACKUP_RETENTION_MONTHS=6
+BACKUP_RETENTION_WEEKS=4

# Log Rotation
-LOG_ROTATION_SIZE_MB=100
-LOG_ROTATION_AGE_DAYS=7
-LOG_ROTATION_KEEP_COUNT=5
+LOG_ROTATION_AGE_DAYS=7
+LOG_ROTATION_KEEP_COUNT=5
+LOG_ROTATION_SIZE_MB=100

# System Inventory
-INVENTORY_OUTPUT_FORMAT=json
-INVENTORY_HISTORY_KEEP_DAYS=90
+INVENTORY_HISTORY_KEEP_DAYS=90
+INVENTORY_OUTPUT_FORMAT=json

The configuration file is well-structured with appropriate defaults and clear documentation. All environment variables align with the scripts' actual usage as verified in the rest of the PR.

project-03-infra-automation/scripts/system-inventory.sh (1)

42-46: Address static analysis warnings for better maintainability.

Two minor static analysis issues should be resolved: (1) SCRIPT_VERSION is declared readonly but never used, and (2) assigning a command substitution result to a variable should be done separately from declaration to avoid masking return values.

Apply these fixes:

-readonly SCRIPT_VERSION="1.0.0"
-readonly SCRIPT_NAME="$(basename "$0")"
-readonly INVENTORY_DIR="${INVENTORY_DIR:-/var/lib/inventory}"
+readonly SCRIPT_VERSION="1.0.0"
+readonly SCRIPT_NAME="$(basename "$0")"
+readonly INVENTORY_DIR="${INVENTORY_DIR:-/var/lib/inventory}"

And separate declare from assignment on line 678:

-local current_file="${INVENTORY_DIR}/current.json"
+local current_file
+current_file="${INVENTORY_DIR}/current.json"

The SCRIPT_VERSION can be used in help output or referenced externally. Separating declaration from assignment prevents masking return values if the expansion fails.

project-03-infra-automation/scripts/server-hardening.sh (1)

42-65: Fix static analysis warnings for return value masking.

The SC2155 warnings about declaring and assigning together should be addressed to follow shell scripting best practices.

Separate declaration from assignment:

-readonly BACKUP_DIR="${BACKUP_DIR:-/var/backups/hardening}/$(timestamp_filename)"
+local backup_timestamp
+backup_timestamp=$(timestamp_filename)
+readonly BACKUP_DIR="${BACKUP_DIR:-/var/backups/hardening}/$backup_timestamp"

Or for readonly variables at the top level:

-readonly BACKUP_DIR="${BACKUP_DIR:-/var/backups/hardening}/$(timestamp_filename)"
+BACKUP_DIR="${BACKUP_DIR:-/var/backups/hardening}/$(timestamp_filename)"
+readonly BACKUP_DIR
project-03-infra-automation/scripts/log-rotation.sh (2)

349-389: Consider avoiding eval for safer command execution.

Line 379 uses eval to execute the compression command, which could be risky if COMPRESSION_CMD is ever compromised or if it contains special characters from filenames.

Use array-based command execution instead of eval:

-setup_compression() {
-    local compression_type="$1"
-
-    case "$compression_type" in
-        gzip)
-            COMPRESSION_CMD="gzip -9"
-            COMPRESSION_EXT=".gz"
-            ;;
-        ...
-    esac
-}
-
-# Usage:
-eval "$COMPRESSION_CMD \"$log_file\""
+# Instead, use arrays:
+declare -a COMPRESSION_ARGS=()
+
+setup_compression() {
+    local compression_type="$1"
+    COMPRESSION_ARGS=()
+
+    case "$compression_type" in
+        gzip)
+            COMPRESSION_ARGS=("gzip" "-9")
+            COMPRESSION_EXT=".gz"
+            ;;
+        ...
+    esac
+}
+
+# Usage:
+"${COMPRESSION_ARGS[@]}" "$log_file"

This eliminates the eval security risk while maintaining flexibility.


44-56: Address static analysis warnings.

Minor static analysis issues: SCRIPT_VERSION is unused, declare/assign masking, and COMPRESSION_EXT is defined but not used.

  • SCRIPT_VERSION could be used in help text or error messages
  • Separate declare from assignment for readonly variables:
-readonly SCRIPT_VERSION="1.0.0"
+SCRIPT_VERSION="1.0.0"
+readonly SCRIPT_VERSION
  • COMPRESSION_EXT should be used or removed if truly unused
project-03-infra-automation/scripts/lib/common.sh (1)

256-268: Fix static analysis warning for return value masking in backup_file.

Line 260 declares and assigns together, which can mask return values if timestamp_filename fails.

Separate declaration from assignment:

 backup_file() {
     local file="$1"
     local backup_dir="${2:-$(dirname "$file")}"
-    local timestamp
-    timestamp=$(timestamp_filename)
+    local timestamp
+    timestamp=$(timestamp_filename)

This separation ensures that if timestamp_filename fails (unlikely but good practice), the error isn't masked.

project-03-infra-automation/scripts/network-diagnostics.sh (1)

42-48: Fix static analysis warnings for declare/assign issues.

Two instances of declaring and assigning together should be separated to follow shell best practices.

-readonly REPORT_DIR="${REPORT_DIR:-/var/reports}"
-readonly TIMEOUT="${NETWORK_TIMEOUT_SECONDS:-10}"
-readonly MAX_HOPS="${NETWORK_MAX_HOPS:-30}"
+readonly REPORT_DIR="${REPORT_DIR:-/var/reports}"
+readonly TIMEOUT="${NETWORK_TIMEOUT_SECONDS:-10}"
+readonly MAX_HOPS="${NETWORK_MAX_HOPS:-30}"

And on line 482 in cmd_report:

-local report_file="${REPORT_DIR}/network-diagnostics-$(timestamp_filename).json"
+local report_file
+report_file="${REPORT_DIR}/network-diagnostics-$(timestamp_filename).json"
project-03-infra-automation/scripts/service-watchdog.sh (2)

42-54: Config/env precedence and minor shellcheck nits

Right now CHECK_INTERVAL/RESTART_LIMIT/etc are initialized from WATCHDOG_* env vars first (Lines 50–53), and then load_configuration() may override them by sourcing $CONFIG_FILE. That means the config file always wins over environment, which is slightly surprising given the header text (“edit config or use environment variables”). If you intend the more common “env overrides config” model, consider sourcing $CONFIG_FILE first and then layering env-based overrides afterwards, or at least documenting this precedence explicitly in the usage block.

Also, SCRIPT_VERSION is currently unused and SCRIPT_NAME is assigned via readonly SCRIPT_NAME="$(basename "$0")". If you care about a clean shellcheck run, either use SCRIPT_VERSION (e.g., in status_daemon/usage) or drop it, and split SCRIPT_NAME into assignment + readonly:

SCRIPT_NAME=$(basename "$0")
readonly SCRIPT_NAME

398-423: Manual JSON construction is fragile for future inputs

save_state() builds JSON via string concatenation:

state_json+="\"$service\": {"
state_json+="\"state\": \"${service_states[$service]}\", "
...

This works as long as service and state values never contain characters needing JSON escaping (quotes, backslashes, etc.). If future configs allow arbitrary service names or messages, this will produce invalid JSON.

Consider either:

  • Restricting allowed service names to a safe character set and documenting it; or
  • Using a small helper (e.g., calling python -c/jq -Rn to JSON-encode keys/values) to escape strings robustly.
project-02-mail-server/docker-compose.yml (1)

185-195: Confirm dashboard’s write vs read behavior for /var/reports

dashboard now mounts:

volumes:
  - mail-logs:/var/log/mail:ro
  - mail-reports:/var/reports:ro
...
environment:
  - REPORT_DIR=/var/reports

and mail-reports is declared as a named volume.

If the dashboard is meant to write report artifacts into /var/reports, the :ro flag will cause write failures and should be dropped. If another service writes the reports and the dashboard only reads them, :ro is correct but it would be good to state that assumption in docs/comments to avoid confusion.

Also applies to: 214-226

project-03-infra-automation/configs/dns/Corefile (1)

1-26: CoreDNS config looks solid for test usage

The Corefile provides a clean test setup: global forwarders, logging, short cache TTL, health endpoint, and a dedicated test.local zone from a file. Only thing to keep in mind is that relying on Google DNS requires outbound network access; if you ever need fully self-contained tests, you might replace the forward stanza with an internal authoritative or stub resolver.

46-46: Intentional root:test password is fine for lab, but guard against reuse

Using:

RUN echo 'root:test' | chpasswd

is appropriate for a controlled test/portfolio image but is a security anti-pattern if this image (or a derivative) is ever exposed beyond a local lab.

Consider:

  • Making the password configurable via a build arg or env (and documenting that this image is for testing only), and/or
  • Having your hardening scripts enforce key-only auth and disable root/password login early in test flows.

This keeps the Dockerfile aligned with Checkov’s warning while preserving your current workflow.

project-03-infra-automation/containers/alpine/Dockerfile (1)

43-43: Hard-coded root:test password should remain clearly test-only

This line:

RUN echo 'root:test' | chpasswd

is fine for a disposable Alpine test target, but it’s exactly what scanners like Checkov warn about if the image is ever repurposed.

You might:

  • Gate it behind a build arg (e.g., ARG ROOT_PASSWORD=test) and document that this image is non-production, and/or
  • Ensure your hardening scripts and docs make it explicit that password auth and root login are disabled in any “real” deployment.
project-03-infra-automation/containers/ubuntu/Dockerfile (1)

51-51: Root password via chpasswd should be clearly scoped to non-production use

RUN echo 'root:test' | chpasswd

makes sense for a demo/test Ubuntu target but is something you don’t want creeping into any production-like environment.

Suggestions:

  • Parameterize the password via a build arg and/or
  • Explicitly document this image as “test-only” and rely on your hardening scripts to lock down SSH (disable root/password auth) when demonstrating security posture.

31-31: Add language identifiers to fenced code blocks.

Three code fences are missing language specifications. While the content is clear, adding language tags improves syntax highlighting and markdown compliance.

Affected lines:

  • Line 31: Architecture diagram (bash/text)
  • Line 317: Output example (bash)
  • Line 508: Project structure (text/bash)

Example fix for line 31:

- ```
+ ```bash
 ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐

Also applies to: 317-317, 508-508


357-357: Consider markdown link syntax for bare URLs.

Lines 357 and 377 contain bare URLs (http://localhost:8025 and http://localhost:8080). For consistency with markdown best practices, consider wrapping these in markdown link syntax:

- **Access:** http://localhost:8080
+ **Access:** [http://localhost:8080](http://localhost:8080)

This improves automatic link detection in markdown renderers.

Also applies to: 377-377

project-02-mail-server/docs/ARCHITECTURE.md (1)

22-56: Add language identifiers to architecture diagram code fences.

Lines with missing language specs (similar to README.md):

  • Line 22-56: Architecture diagram (text/ascii)
  • Line 134-196: Data flow diagrams (text/ascii)

Apply consistent text or ascii language identifier. Example:

- ```
+ ```text
 ┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐

Also applies to: 134-196

project-03-infra-automation/containers/ubuntu/entrypoint.sh (1)

24-24: Optional: Add clarification comment for PID file handling.

Line 24 creates an empty PID file. While sshd will populate it, a comment clarifying intent improves maintainability:

# Create PID file path (sshd will write its actual PID)
touch /var/run/sshd.pid

Minor readability improvement only.

project-03-infra-automation/README.md (2)

11-11: Use proper markdown headings instead of emphasis.

Lines 11, 480, and 728 use emphasis (**text**) for section headers instead of proper markdown headings. While visually similar, proper headings enable better markdown processing and table of contents generation:

Line 11 (suggested):

- **Production-ready infrastructure automation scripts...**
+ ## Production-Ready Infrastructure Automation Scripts

Line 480 (Magyar section):

- **Linux System Administrator Portfolio**
+ ## Linux System Administrator Portfolio

This is a minor markdown linting improvement.

Also applies to: 480-480, 728-728


48-48: Add language identifier to code fence (line 48).

The project structure code fence is missing a language tag. Suggest:

- ```
+ ```
 project-03-infra-automation/

Add bash or text identifier for consistency with markdown standards.

project-02-mail-server/docs/SCRIPTS.md (1)

129-129: Add language identifiers to bash code fences.

Four code fences are missing language specifications:

  • Line 129: Logging function configuration (add bash)
  • Line 200: Usage example (add bash)
  • Line 667: Configuration example (add bash)
  • Line 703: Command output (add bash or text)

Example fix:

- ```
+ ```bash
 # Default value

project-03-infra-automation/scripts/backup-manager.sh (5)

193-200: detect_compression_tool unused result and missing check for incremental

In cmd_full you capture comp_tool=$(detect_compression_tool "$compression") but never use comp_tool; in cmd_incremental you don’t call detect_compression_tool at all. This leads to:

  • An unused variable warning.
  • Inconsistency: full backups validate tool presence, incremental backups don’t.

Either use comp_tool to drive compression, or just call the detector for its side effect and discard the result in both commands, e.g.:

-    local comp_tool
-    if ! comp_tool=$(detect_compression_tool "$compression"); then
+    if ! detect_compression_tool "$compression" >/dev/null; then
         return 1
     fi

and mirror this check in cmd_incremental before compressing.

Also applies to: 316-325


247-257: Compression reported in metadata/JSON may not match actual algorithm

cmd_full/cmd_incremental accept a compression argument, but the JSON report written by generate_backup_report() always uses $DEFAULT_COMPRESSION. If a caller overrides the algorithm per-invocation, the report will be wrong.

Consider passing the actual compression used into generate_backup_report and propagating it into the JSON:

-    generate_backup_report "full" "$source" "$final_path" "$checksum"
+    generate_backup_report "full" "$source" "$final_path" "$checksum" "$compression"

and:

-generate_backup_report() {
-    local type="$1"
-    local source="$2"
-    local archive="$3"
-    local checksum="$4"
+generate_backup_report() {
+    local type="$1"
+    local source="$2"
+    local archive="$3"
+    local checksum="$4"
+    local compression="${5:-$DEFAULT_COMPRESSION}"-        "checksum": "$checksum",
-        "compression": "$DEFAULT_COMPRESSION"
+        "checksum": "$checksum",
+        "compression": "$compression"

Also applies to: 333-346, 520-543


47-51: Retention configuration suggests GFS but implementation uses only daily threshold

You expose BACKUP_RETENTION_DAYS/WEEKS/MONTHS and describe a GFS scheme, but cmd_prune only checks RETENTION_DAILY in if ((age_days > RETENTION_DAILY)); then … rm. Weekly/monthly knobs are never used, so behavior is just “delete everything older than N days”.

Either implement the intended GFS bucketing (daily/weekly/monthly groupings) or simplify the configuration/docs to a single “days to keep” knob to avoid confusing operators.

Also applies to: 493-513


53-55: Minor: remove or use unused state variables

TOTAL_SIZE, FILES_BACKED_UP, and the comp_tool variable are never used. Unless you plan to wire them into summaries/metrics soon, consider removing them to keep the script tight and satisfy ShellCheck.

This is purely cosmetic and can be deferred.

Also applies to: 194-194


256-256: Minor: quote $(stat …) inside bytes_to_mb calls

The bytes_to_mb invocations pass unquoted command substitutions:

bytes_to_mb $(stat -c %s "$final_path")

While the output is a single integer today, quoting is more robust and silences SC2046:

bytes_to_mb "$(stat -c %s "$final_path" 2>/dev/null || stat -f %z "$final_path")"

Same for the incremental case.

Also applies to: 352-352

project-02-mail-server/scripts/test-mail-flow.sh (2)

55-59: TEMP_DIR is created and cleaned up but never used

You allocate a dedicated temp directory and remove it on EXIT, but no code writes into $TEMP_DIR. This is harmless, but it adds noise.

If you don’t plan to store intermediate SMTP/IMAP transcripts there, consider removing the temp-dir setup.


94-101: Strong assumptions about SMTP AUTH and IMAP responses

The checks for SMTP AUTH success/failure and IMAP capabilities rely on very specific strings:

  • SMTP success: grep -q "235.*Authentication successful"
  • SMTP failure: grep -qE "(535|authentication failed)"
  • IMAP capability: grep -q "CAPABILITY.*IMAP4rev1"

These work for your current Postfix/Dovecot configuration but are brittle to localization or minor banner wording changes.

If you expect to reuse this script more broadly, consider relaxing the patterns slightly (e.g., anchor on the status code only for SMTP, or check for IMAP4 rather than the full word) to make the tests less fragile.

Also applies to: 291-303, 317-331

project-02-mail-server/dashboard/script.js (1)

235-255: Guard keyboard shortcuts when typing in input fields

Global shortcuts are bound on document and fire even while the user is typing in a text box or textarea. Pressing r inside a form will trigger a full page refresh, which is a pretty harsh UX.

You can cheaply guard this by checking the active element before handling shortcuts, e.g.:

function handleKeyboard(event) {
    const tag = (event.target && event.target.tagName) || '';
    if (['INPUT', 'TEXTAREA', 'SELECT'].includes(tag)) {
        return;
    }
    // existing R/T/? handling…
}
project-03-infra-automation/tests/e2e-test.sh (1)

43-46: TARGET_SCRIPT and TARGET_OS are parsed but never used

You accept --script and --target options in main() and set TARGET_SCRIPT / TARGET_OS, but never branch on them in run_all_tests or elsewhere. At the moment, these flags have no effect; the full suite always runs.

If selective runs are out of scope for now, consider removing the options to avoid confusion. Otherwise, add simple filters (e.g., wrap script-specific groups and multi-OS tests in if blocks checking these variables).

Also applies to: 650-676

project-02-mail-server/tests/e2e-test.sh (1)

37-38: Minor: timeouts and container list cleanups

  • TIMEOUT is defined but hard-coded timeout 5/timeout 2 values are used throughout; either use the constant everywhere or drop it.
  • CONTAINERS omits mail-cert-init, yet test_containers_healthy has a special-case skip for it, which is effectively dead code.

These are minor consistency issues; fixing them will make the script easier to maintain.

Also applies to: 189-212, 326-356

🔇 Additional comments (21)
project-03-infra-automation/.gitignore (1)

1-40: Approve other patterns as appropriate for the project.

The remaining patterns—environment variables (.env), Docker volumes, logs, backups, test artifacts, OS files, editor configurations, and temporary files—follow best practices and align well with the project's infrastructure automation, multi-OS Docker environment, and test infrastructure.

README.md (1)

38-40: Documentation accurately reflects PR scope and deliverables.

The updated README correctly documents the status change for Projects 2 and 3 to Complete, with accurate implementation statistics and bilingual descriptions. The project highlights section effectively communicates the complexity and scope of the infrastructure automation toolkit.

The documentation is comprehensive, well-organized, and accurately reflects the implementation details provided in the PR objectives and AI summary.

project-03-infra-automation/docs/TESTING.md (1)

1-912: Comprehensive and well-structured testing documentation.

The testing documentation provides extensive coverage of the test strategy, environment setup, and best practices. The inclusion of CI/CD examples (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, pre-commit hooks) and troubleshooting guidance makes this a practical reference for developers.

The documentation is thorough, with clear sections on test environment, execution, structure, and best practices. The TAP format test output examples and performance metrics are helpful for understanding test execution.

project-03-infra-automation/scripts/system-inventory.sh (1)

54-226: Comprehensive and well-implemented system inventory collection.

The collection functions properly handle missing files with fallbacks, use appropriate system commands, and parse data correctly. The integration with the common library (bytes_to_gb, detect_os, detect_os_version, etc.) is clean and appropriate.

Data collection is robust with good error handling and OS-agnostic detection logic. The use of conditional file checks and fallback mechanisms ensures the script works across different Linux distributions.

project-03-infra-automation/scripts/server-hardening.sh (2)

133-272: Excellent SSH hardening implementation with proper idempotency and validation.

The SSH hardening module demonstrates best practices: idempotency checking, configuration validation before application, backup strategy, and error rollback. The use of sshd -t to validate configuration before applying is a security best practice.

The SSH module is well-implemented with comprehensive security settings (Protocol 2, key-based auth, timeouts, session limits) and proper error handling.


278-480: Comprehensive firewall configuration with good tool abstraction.

The firewall module handles multiple tools (iptables, nftables, ufw) appropriately and includes container detection to prevent errors in containerized environments. The firewall rules follow security best practices with SSH rate limiting and established connection tracking.

The tool-agnostic approach to firewall configuration is well-designed and handles various Linux distributions appropriately.

project-03-infra-automation/scripts/log-rotation.sh (1)

317-424: Well-designed compression and retention strategy.

The deferred compression approach allows services time to finish writing to rotated logs before compression, and the multiple algorithm support (gzip, bzip2, xz, zstd) provides flexibility for different performance/compression trade-offs. Retention policy is thorough.

The compression and retention implementation is practical and follows industry best practices for log management.

project-03-infra-automation/scripts/lib/common.sh (1)

1-408: Excellent shared utility library with comprehensive infrastructure automation support.

The common.sh library provides well-designed abstractions for OS detection, validation, JSON generation, file operations, and network utilities. The multi-OS support (Debian, Alpine, RHEL, Arch) and fallback mechanisms make this robust across different environments. The inclusion of container execution wrappers is particularly useful for the test environment.

This is a high-quality utility library that effectively reduces code duplication across the infrastructure automation scripts. The design promotes consistency and maintainability across the toolkit.

project-03-infra-automation/scripts/network-diagnostics.sh (2)

167-325: Comprehensive network diagnostics with excellent tool abstraction.

The connectivity and DNS commands provide thorough diagnostics: ICMP testing, gateway validation, traceroute analysis, MTU discovery, and DNS record queries across multiple record types. The tool detection with fallbacks (dig/nslookup/host) makes this portable across different systems.

Well-implemented diagnostic commands that follow logical troubleshooting patterns and provide actionable output.


331-474: Practical routing and port scanning functionality.

The routing table analysis shows relevant information (default route, primary interface, interface status) useful for troubleshooting. Port scanning with common ports and custom port support covers common use cases.

Good implementation of network discovery and port scanning with appropriate tool selection (nmap preferred, fallback to arp-scan or ARP cache).

project-03-infra-automation/containers/alpine/entrypoint.sh (1)

1-30: Alpine entrypoint looks correct and consistent with other targets

The entrypoint cleanly initializes the environment (dirs + host keys), starts sshd, drops a PID file in /run/sshd.pid, and uses exec "$@" to hand off PID 1. This is exactly what you need for an SSH-capable test target and aligns nicely with the other OS entrypoints.

project-02-mail-server/README.md (1)

1-720: Excellent bilingual documentation structure.

The README demonstrates strong documentation practices:

  • Clear sectioning with English/Magyar headers
  • Production-ready guidance (security considerations, troubleshooting)
  • Comprehensive feature lists with line counts
  • Real-world examples and use cases
  • Professional visual hierarchy

The bilingual format (English followed by Magyar equivalents) is consistent and well-executed throughout.

project-02-mail-server/docs/ARCHITECTURE.md (2)

710-717: Use markdown link syntax for RFC references.

The references section contains bare URLs. Consider wrapping in markdown link syntax for better compatibility:

- - [Postfix Documentation](http://www.postfix.org/documentation.html)
- - [Dovecot Wiki](https://doc.dovecot.org/)
+ - [Postfix Documentation](http://www.postfix.org/documentation.html)
+ - [Dovecot Wiki](https://doc.dovecot.org/)

(These lines appear already to be markdown links in the provided text, so this may be a false positive from the linter.)


1-800: Comprehensive architectural documentation.

This document demonstrates excellent system design documentation:

  • Clear layering: Frontend/backend network separation
  • Detailed service descriptions (Postfix, Dovecot, MySQL, SpamAssassin)
  • Security architecture with concrete hardening examples
  • Database schema with ER diagrams
  • Data flow documentation with ASCII diagrams
  • Scalability and disaster recovery guidance
  • Production-ready recommendations (Let's Encrypt, fail2ban, etc.)

The architecture aligns well with the README and provides implementers with sufficient technical depth.

project-03-infra-automation/docker-compose.yml (1)

1-161: Well-structured Docker Compose configuration for multi-OS testing.

The docker-compose.yml demonstrates excellent containerization practices:

Strengths:

  • Consistent service definitions with clear labeling
  • Health checks on all services with appropriate timings (30s interval, 10s timeout)
  • Proper capability assignment (NET_ADMIN, SYS_ADMIN) for testing infrastructure
  • Read-only script mounts (:ro) protecting production state
  • Static IPs for test services enabling predictable network testing
  • Shared volumes with semantic naming (infra-reports, infra-backups, infra-logs)
  • Environment variable configuration (TZ, LOG_LEVEL, REPORT_DIR, BACKUP_DIR)
  • Proper network isolation with internal bridge

Design:

  • 3 target containers (Debian, Alpine, Ubuntu) enable cross-platform validation
  • 2 service containers (nginx, CoreDNS) provide testing targets for diagnostics
  • Consistent restart policy (unless-stopped)
  • Clean separation of concerns

This configuration is production-ready and well-suited for CI/CD integration.

project-03-infra-automation/containers/ubuntu/entrypoint.sh (1)

1-31: Solid container entrypoint with good defensive practices.

The entrypoint demonstrates proper containerization patterns:

Strengths:

  • Strict error handling with set -e
  • Non-critical service failures guarded with || true (rsyslog, ufw)
  • Clear initialization sequence (directories → SSH → logging → firewall)
  • Informative output for debugging (hostname, IP address)
  • Proper delegation with exec "$@" allowing container command override

Design:

  • Creates necessary runtime directories upfront
  • Allows rsyslog/UFW failures without container failure
  • Provides visibility into container readiness state

The script follows production entrypoint best practices and integrates well with the docker-compose health checks.

CLAUDE.md (1)

35-66: Well-structured project status documentation.

The CLAUDE.md updates clearly document project completion:

Strengths:

  • Accurate file and script counts
  • Concrete line-of-code metrics
  • Feature highlights aligned with actual deliverables

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

CLI usage (--auto, --from) does not match argument handling

The header documents flags like --auto and --from user@example.com, but the script actually treats $1 and $2 as raw email addresses:

readonly TEST_FROM="${1:-john@example.com}"
readonly TEST_TO="${2:-jane@example.com}"

If you run ./test-mail-flow.sh --auto, TEST_FROM becomes --auto, which will fail AUTH and SMTP steps.

Either implement simple option parsing (e.g., while [[ $# -gt 0 ]]; do case "$1" in --from) …) to support the documented flags, or update the usage section to reflect the current positional-argument interface.

Also applies to: 45-48

🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
In project-02-mail-server/scripts/test-mail-flow.sh around lines 10-14 and
45-48, the usage header advertises flags (--auto, --from) but the script reads
positional args directly so passing --auto becomes TEST_FROM; replace the
positional handling with a simple option parser: add a while [[ $# -gt 0 ]] loop
with a case for --auto (set AUTO=true; shift), --from <addr> (set TEST_FROM to
next arg; shift 2), --to <addr> (set TEST_TO to next arg; shift 2), and a --help
branch that prints usage and exits; keep default values if flags not supplied
and validate that provided addresses are non-empty; remove or adapt any
remaining positional $1/$2 usage elsewhere to reference TEST_FROM and TEST_TO
variables.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

CLI flags (--quick, --verbose) are documented but unused

The header advertises --quick and --verbose, and you define:

readonly QUICK_MODE="${1:-}"

but main() never parses or checks any arguments; all phases always run, and QUICK_MODE/verbosity don’t affect behavior.

Either:

  • Implement a basic argument parser in main() (e.g., to skip slow tests when --quick is present, adjust logging when --verbose is set), or
  • Remove these options from the usage text and the unused QUICK_MODE variable.

As written, users will assume behavior that doesn’t exist.

Summary

Fixed Issue: Changed .gitignore patterns from overly broad global exclusions to directory-scoped patterns:

  • Before: *.json and *.html (excluded ALL json/html files repo-wide)
  • After: reports//*.json and reports//*.html (only excludes generated reports)

Commit: 94234f9 - "fix(project-03): Scope .gitignore patterns to reports directory only"

Status: ✅ Pushed to remote branch dev/project-03-infra-automation

The fix is now part of PR #2 at #2

This ensures that legitimate source files (configuration JSON, metadata files, etc.) elsewhere in the repository won't be accidentally excluded from version control, while still
ignoring the generated report outputs in the reports/ directory.

@w7-mgfcode, thanks for the update on the .gitignore fix! Scoping those patterns to reports/**/*.json and reports/**/*.html is definitely the right approach—it prevents accidentally excluding legitimate configuration or metadata files elsewhere in the repository. 👍

However, I noticed this update appears to be about a different issue in project-03-infra-automation, while this comment thread was originally about unused CLI flags (--quick, --verbose) in project-02-mail-server/tests/e2e-test.sh.

The original concern here was that the CLI flags are documented in the usage text but never actually parsed or used by the script, which could confuse users who expect that functionality to work.

Did you also plan to address the CLI flags issue in this file, or would you like to tackle that separately? Let me know if you'd like any suggestions for implementing the argument parsing!

Previously *.json and *.html were excluded globally which would have
blocked legitimate source files. Now only ignoring generated reports.

Fixes overly broad ignore patterns at lines 14-15.
Changed from /var/run/ssh/sshd.pid to /var/run/sshd.pid to match
the directory created in mkdir command (/var/run/sshd).

Under set -e, touching a file in a non-existent directory would cause
the script to fail.
Removed --compression and --exclude from usage text as they were
not actually parsed by the script. Compression is already configurable
via BACKUP_COMPRESSION environment variable as documented.

This aligns help text with actual behavior.
Added ensure_directory call before tar command pipes to tee.
Without this, the tee command would fail if /var/reports didn't exist,
causing the entire pipeline to fail under set -euo pipefail even if
the tar archive was successfully created.
Changed snapshot file initialization to use the mtime of the most recent
full backup instead of hardcoded '1 day ago'. This ensures the first
incremental backup includes all changes since the full backup was created,
preventing data loss.

- Extract mtime from latest full backup file using stat
- Use touch -d with Unix timestamp for cross-platform compatibility
- Fallback to epoch (1970-01-01) if full backup file not accessible
CRITICAL FIX: The watchdog was using non-standard syslog severity 'critical'
which caused logger to fail on systems with strict validation. Under
set -euo pipefail, this terminated the entire watchdog daemon at the exact
moment when alerts were most needed.

Changes:
- Map 'critical' -> 'crit' (standard syslog level)
- Map 'error'/'err' -> 'err'
- Map 'warning'/'warn' -> 'warning'
- Add error handling (|| log_debug) to prevent daemon termination
- Add ensure_directory and error handling for alert log writes

This prevents daemon crashes during alert delivery and ensures
compatibility across different logger implementations.

SECURITY/CORRECTNESS FIX: Raw INVENTORY values were being embedded into
sed expressions without escaping, which would break if values contained
special sed characters like '/', '&', or '\'.

Changes:
- Added sed_escape() helper function to escape special characters
- Changed sed delimiter from '/' to '|' for clarity
- Escape all INVENTORY values before using in sed replacements
- Prevents sed command failures when system info contains special chars

Example: CPU model "Intel(R) Core(TM) i7/i9" would previously break
the sed command due to the forward slash.
TEST FIX: The integration test was grepping for 'Backup created:' but
backup-manager.sh actually outputs 'Backup completed:' with the basename.
This caused BACKUP_FILE to be empty and the verify step to fail.

Changes:
- Changed grep pattern from 'Backup created:' to 'Backup completed:'
- Extract basename into BACKUP_NAME variable
- Construct full path by prepending destination directory
- Pass complete path to verify command

The test will now correctly extract the backup filename and verify it.
TAP COMPLIANCE FIX: The TAP plan was hard-coded to 40 but there are
actually 43 run_test invocations, causing a plan/count mismatch that
breaks TAP compliance.

Changes:
- Updated total_tests from 40 to 43
- Added detailed comment with breakdown by test suite
- Added grep command to help maintain count when tests change
- Breakdown: 3 (common) + 6 (hardening) + 7 (network) + 4 (watchdog) +
             6 (backup) + 6 (log-rotation) + 6 (inventory) + 3 (multi-os) +
             2 (integration) = 43

This ensures TAP output is valid and test runners correctly interpret
the test results.
